' The Third Georgia will entertain
the delegation from the Kawkiu’s
Zouaves, in handsome style at Fort
Valley to day. • These two commands
crossed bayonets more than onco dur
ing the war. Now, in these piping
times of "peace, the Zouaves come
south, where they will be cordially
welcomed by their old opponents.
The Zouaves bring with them a
handsome shield, fashioned after the
Rhode Islnnd coart of arms, and com
posed of immortelles. The ground
work is of white 1 lossoms, and across
the shield is a band of gray flowers,
on which, in raised blue floral letters
are the words: “Hawkins Zouaves to
the Third Georgia.” Above the band
crimson letters spell ‘‘-Peat":” and
“Good-will.”
The floral tribute will l>c presented
to the Georgia regiment, and a speech
will be made by ex-Judge Langbein
at the re-union.
And the old soldiers will fight their
battles over again, not on bloody
fields, hut around the festal board.

President, Green, of the Western
Union Telegraph Company, one of
tlio bloated monopolies of the day,
has tackled Wanamaker, the “breeches
maker,” now at the head of the post

There isn’t a very big splotch of blood

appears to be the more belligerent of
the two.
